FIFA Sets Referees for 2026 Opening

Brazilian referee Wílton Sampaio will lead the opening match of the World Cup between Mexico and South Africa in Mexico City. He will be accompanied by other Brazilian officials, including Bruno Perez and Bruno Bichiglia. Sampaio has officiated matches in the 2022 World Cup and was part of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) team in 2018. The International Football Federation (FIFA) set a record for the number of referees appointed for this edition, while the United States declined entry to a Somali referee who was a candidate to become the first referee from his country to participate in the tournament.
